Omg I saw the cutest love story:
So it starts when person a saves person b’s life. They instantly feel a connection, and spend the next year and a half practically glued at the hip. Then after a tragic accident person a suffers they blame person b, have a massive fight, and the two split up. They go 10 years without seeing each other before reuniting as person a breaks person b out of jail. The reunion is very tense and there’s a lot of fighting both verbal and physical. Then person b tries to kill person a’s younger sister (who he had an affair with over the 10 year gap) and they fight and part again. Another ten years later they meet a third time where person b leaves the cult he’s in (dudes got issues) to save person a’s life after reminiscing on their life together. They part reluctantly a week later. They meet another 10 years later to… not really important they meet again and part amicably a week later. Finally 5 years after that, 35 years after they first met. They meet in Paris, and person b proposes, and person a says yes. They live the rest of their lives in peace on an island in the Caribbean.
My friend: … that sounds familiar
Me: CAUSE ITS THE FUCKING PLOT OF X-MEN

Friendly reminder that there’s only one multiverse in the mcu. It covers everything- Marvel, Sony, Fox, etc. Those are all universes inside the multiverse… of which there is only one :) :)

Chapters: 6/32 Fandom: X-Men - All Media Types, X-Men (Movieverse), X-Men (Comicverse), X-Men: First Class (Comics), Marvel Cinematic Universe, Captain America (Movies), Agent Carter (TV) Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Relationships: Erik Lehnsherr/Charles Xavier Characters: Raven | Mystique, Peggy Carter, Erik Lehnsherr, Charles Xavier Additional Tags: Alternate Universe, Post WW2, Teenagers, Teen Angst, Psychological Trauma, Experimentation, Friendship, Judaism, long story, plot heavy, Other Additional Tags to Be Added, Hurt/Comfort, Emotional Hurt/Comfort, Emotional Baggage, Period Typical Attitudes, Discovering Powers, Growing Up, Developing Friendships, Slow Burn, Some dark themes, a lot of Yiddish, mostly because Erik curses a lot, Feels, lots of them - Freeform Summary:
The year is 1949. A young Charles Xavier begs Peggy Carter to save his sister's life, and soon he finds himself trapped inside a secret base with a boy who can manipulate metal and insists that they both have powers.
A very well documented story about growing up, trauma, found family, defying societal norms, and changing the world.   ---
Peggy is livid when she discovers Lang has been experimenting on the children. Meanwhile, they keep studying and trying to learn to use their powers, and discover something about Captain America.
--------------------- "No, don't give me that 'she has experience with enhanced people' bullshit. She tore Sargent Barnes apart! You can't allow her to be near children." Peggy's mind glowed red. Charles shook his head a few times, wincing a bit. He didn't particularly like reading anger, though this was a far cry from the coldness he sensed in Lang's.
"Oh, Barnes, the one who ran away with your boyfriend, Carter?" Charles experienced a surge of annoyance in her mind, and something a bit like a mental eye roll. He'd always wondered how close she was to the Captain, and he resisted the urge to follow those thoughts a bit closer.
"Oh, now you did it! Those are grave accusations."
"Everybody here knows what happened, agent. People may hold parades and listen to nurse Carver on the radio swooning over him, but we know the truth about Captain America. He didn't really care about the women swooning over him, did he?"

Negative Romys (bc I know there must be chill ones out there) @ Roguneto in Xmen 97: “NOOOOOO HOW COULD THE WRITERS DO THIS AND DESTROY ROGUE X REMY?! POOR GAMBIT!!!”
Me: *side-eying all of the Marvel material that clearly shows that Romy content severely outnumbering Roguneto content by a landslide and the same Roguneto content winding up being ruined anyway by later writers just because they can* “Ah, yes…poor Gambit…”
All jokes aside, I wonder if the Romys’ concern is that if Roguneto is positively received = somehow becoming canon in the comics later? Because I know Marvel (and DC) has a history of taking a few things that the movies/shows/ side comics have done that were well received by fans or were anticipated to be well received ahead of time by fans and sometimes the companies themselves and incorporating them into the comics later
(ex. X-23 from X-Men Evolution to actual comics, Tony Stark’s personality eventually just becoming Robert Downey Jr as a comic book character, Samuel Jackson!Nick Fury from Ultimate Marvel to MCU to secret son of original Nick Fury and goes by the same name, Magneto’s Helmet protecting him from telepathy in Xmen First Class Movie to comics, Comic!Rogue’s real first name being a combination of her movie self’s name and that actress’s first name, Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver not being related to Magneto after all bc their movie selves weren’t, Gwen Stacy’s fun alternative existence as Spider-Gwen/Woman , Miles Morales’s (yay!) existence, Tom Hiddleston’s portrayal of Loki influencing the comic version of him to become a sad little meow meow, Age of Apocalypse’s version of Changling/Morph being brought into X-Men 97, etc)
, but if one truly counts all of the slight/significant changes Marvel Comics have made to the main timeline because of other material, it’s REALLY not a lot.
There’s no need for anyone who ships Romy (which I also ship in addition to Roguneto bc yay multishipping!) to feel threatened by potential romantic alternatives.
And just in case the romantic ships might be altered after all (not likely): if the Multiverse is a thing, maybe we consider it’s not the end of the world if the relationships in the X-Men animated universe is not 100% going to follow how they played out in the comics.
ALSO also, when all else fails, they can just develop their writing/art skills and make fix-it aus 😆
The chaotic neutral part of me actually kinda still hopes that enough people with get on board with Roguneto though so that the comics will see the enthusiasm for them and bring them back in the main universe and shake things up again or in one of the official alternate universes and give them the love and respect the pairing deserves 🤪
I really appreciate your comments. I suppose there could be concerns from the Romy contingent regarding this. Sadly, I think at this point corporate IP is too dedicated to keeping the status quo maintained as it is for the longest time.
I agree with you, I see her relationship with Magneto as brief trysts in the mainstream universe, and an occasional AU marriage reveal. I think that Rogue and Gambit will remain a couple in the mainstream universe despite this current twist in the '97 series. There's too much time and money spent into the material, merchandise, and story that's been built for Romy in reality across various media, and in the perception of people's memories which sometimes have a rosy nostalgic glow. It takes a lot to re-educate an audience and I don't see corporations having that time and patience.
Jean and Scott will always remain together. Meggan and Brian are a duo for all time. Sue and Reed Richards are going to stay married.
No matter what, the story will always return to that. In this reboot, I think it's to give Magneto an extra angle and further reason to stay at the mansion if you leave in doubt his and Rogue's activities on and off camera.
I think my biggest complaint is how there's a circling of the wagons around Rogue when anyone (but particularly Magneto) is interested in her. It frustrates me because I believe characters should experience a lot of different relationships. It builds for a more well rounded person in reality, and a better character in the story. But with Rogue, why isn't she allowed to have other romantic encounters? Why must there be a strange arguments about age, about experience? These are traumatized beautiful people with fancy abilities in a soap opera. With capes. (And occasional opera gloves)
In short, I believe that instead of one ship, a character deserves an armada. I agree, alternate universe pairings would be fun too!
I too enjoy drama and can't wait to see how the show plays out this romance.

One thing about the xmen is that their asses are always getting sent to some dystopian age or alternate timeline. And like sure, the other teams in the broader marvel universe are affected too but that’s purely incidental. When’s the last time the the inhumans got sent to the fucking age of i universe where inhuman babies get put into the meat grinder to make sausage. Never. Mutants are so dedicated to getting traumatized by living a life thats a hellish distortion of their own that they have the exiles, who’s job is literally just going from fucked up world to fucked up world and getting fucked up by it

Mike Carey could not answer why rogue is with magneto after he mentally raped her and killed millions in new york and carey said all those things were no longer canon which is just silly because Carey wanted people to remember Gambit's part in the molock massacre but he told is to forget all of magneto's sin which were WORSE.
Notice how when rogue and magneto are paired it is for ridiculous reason and silly excuses and this is because it does not make sense but when rogue and gambit are paired, it always feels right and you can see how their relationship has developed and has come full circle.
rogue and gmabit have an actual timeline of their romance that is not disjointed but organic, rogue and magneto do not, it is just random things that keep happening with no solid explanation that makes sense.
In xmen legacy, she chose magneto over some sob holocaust story and because of the alternate rogue from age of x whose memories she has? in aoa she chose magneto because he can touch her? these are the silly superficial reasons of why the writers pair rogue and magneto because of their own personal love for magneto whereas with rogue and gambit there is more depth and substance to why they are together without any superficial or shallow reasons or any sense that you are reading the writers own self insert story of himself were he is Magneto.

An Archer's Tale
by controlofwhatido, rufferto
The one in which Bucky is a WereLion and Clint is a human disaster with a heart of gold. Alternate Universe that begins a week after the battle of NY and the timeline is late Spring, early summer. Yelena is Clint’s best friend instead of Natasha. Coulson didn’t die. The writer plays fast and loose with the MCU timeline and Bucky has a mostly similar but very different background along with Natasha and Brock.
While healing from being wounded during the battle of NY, Clint gets mail that tells him he needs to go to Iowa so he uses this as an excuse to avoid having to spend months in the tower being bored. On the way to his farm, Clint stops briefly in the town motel overnight. In the morning, he is groggy on pain-killers and pretty much out of it when he encounters the Circus and Bucky the lion being tormented. He has no idea what is going on and things snowball a bit. Now his farm is hosting the Circus and he’s not sure how that happened but he's going to roll with it.
Clint gets embroiled in many things at the farm related to his brother’s shenanigans and Bucky the Lion that a guy who’s supposed to be healing from brain trauma and a broken arm should not be dealing with.

So I’ve started watching the Legion (I’m two episodes in) and I have so many questions and feels and ill-advised ideas for (cherik) fics that will never see the light of day
Like I get it that continuity was probably very much Not An Issue anyone cared for, but what’s the supposed timeline for the series? Or, well, not supposed but possible? I take it had it happened in the alternate xmen verse, it probably had to happen before the DOFP, when the mutants went pretty much public, which made me think - what if it didn’t? As in, what if it’s happening in the ‘original’ timeline, where Mistique killed Trask, and the mutants weren’t publicly known until later.
Had that been the case, imagine how the events of DOFP could’ve changed David’s life (if he hadn’t been admitted to the Clockworks yet).
Only two episodes in and already I’m overcome with the need for a cherik AU with Charles and Erik finding their sons and reconciling with them OH WELL.

So. I have started writing a somewhat Peter Maximoff centric X-Men fic. Now I have to decide at what point I'm diverging from canon. Bc what I've written is Peter POV for the parts of Days of Future Past Peter is canonically in.
I'm debating if I want to make a reason that Peter is w them in Paris or w them at the Sentinel demonstration gone wrong. Or if I want to adjust when/how apocalypse happens and have Peter more involved there. Hmmm

---- "Guess I'd just need to separate you from these two." He shrugged, looking over at Charles with a sharp smile. "They say you're quiet without them. Blank. Now, is that because you're being cagey, or because there isn't much going on up there in that brain of yours? See, when she panics, you panic. When Erik got nervous, you got nervous. Do you have your own feelings? Are you a real boy?"
 "He feels more than anyone!" Raven cried as she threw her arms out, but the man knocked her over with one hand, surprisingly careful not to hurt her. He didn't want to cause too much damage yet.
 "Does he? Or is he just borrowing? What do you like?" He leaned in closer, pressing a claw against Charles' shoulder, gaze tight and menacing as he dug in again. "Do you know?"
